Title: SOME PHYSICAL FACTORS AFFECTING CONTAMINANT HYDROLOGY IN COLD ENVIRONMENTS
Accession Number: 00666231
Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: Some of the physical effects of cold temperatures that should be considered when developing a contaminant-transport model are surveyed in this paper. The discussion begins with the following working definition of the term "cold region" for the purpose of contaminant hydrology modeling: an area with appreciable frozen ground and a substantial fraction of the annual precipitation as snow. Models that estimate the liquid water content and hydraulic conductivity of frozen ground are discussed.
